When I checked, the S1r is up to 1.7 ( dec. 22) and I had missed the 1.6 update you reviewed here, so downloaded it and installed it. I appreciate Panasonic keep the updates coming. I am looking forward to trying it, thanks.
Hi Dustin, Happy New Year to you! Great that you took some time to test the firmware upgrade. I installed it only a few days after availability, and I am quite pleased. it is not 100% perfect by now, but with the update I never experienced this crazy "I cannot fina anything to focus on" behavior of my S1H which I ran into with appr. 20-30% of all my AF attempts before. So, much, much better and to some extend reliable when the situation is not too complex. For complex focusing, such as going back and forth between 2 characters or foreground and background, I'd prefer MF for sure.
Great video Dustin, well done! The problem is that the AF sometimes works, sometimes not...So instead of wasting time with more takes, I just prefer to stick with MF and blame myself if I fail (sometimes...ahahahah).
Thanks for your tests. This seems to come down to use case scenarios. I would probably not risk one time interviews to AF on any camera, but if you are handholding a gimbal, you are forced to trust the camera. They have limited the "freak out" behavior but have not eliminated it. That is my big hangup with DFD, it is unsure of itself which shows more than just missing and adjusting. My GH5 is decent so I would expect the S-series to be a real upgrade. Clearly the Sonys and Canons are better but the Pannys are not far behind for a lot of real world uses.
Thanks for the comparison! And not sure if you were shooting in 24, 30 or 60 fps. But it's been proven time and again that higher frame rate helps with the dfd
I have a s5. I think what u missed is comparing different crops, FPS and resolution. The less “work” the camera does, it gets better. For example, shooting in apsc, 24fps and 1080p the af is really good. Vice versa, shooting in full frame mode and bigger resolution and more frame rates will slow down the camera
Bigger resolution will slow down the camera AF, but not high frame rate, it's the opposite. AF will be better with 60fps than 30fps and 30 fps will be better than 24fps. You will get the worse AF with 4K 24fps.
@@slows728 I get there are times you'll use the camera to shoot at 1080p since people don't always need higher resolutions. But to me it's irrelevant that the autofocus is better at 1080p since you wouldn't buy this camera just to shoot in 1080p. It has WAY more to offer and if you buy it and only shoot at 1080p just to get a little bit better AF, I feel like you're throwing away money. Just my opinion though
To me, Panasonic has closed the gap massively with AF. For what I need it for, it's more than enough. Also, in stills, it's just as good as Canon, imo.
Great video man. I have watched all of your AF videos several times and they have been very helpful. I recently picked up the S1. i finally got a native S Pro lens(24-70 F2.8). Since your video is a little older, just wondering if you have tried AF tests recently? I just did some with the Vers. 2.1 update and was pleasantly surprised at how well the S1 performed using a native L-mount lens. I tested using default settings 0/0 at 6K open gate 24p, 5.9k, C4k 24,60p and noticed very good performance with NO Pulsing. I will test the lens on the Sigma fp next.
I'm editing a fast video of the 6k internal on the s1h vs the 6k internal on the s5 lol. I was actually very surprised on the image quality and how they're practically (almost) the same 💀

I did the worldfamous Richard Wong running up and down his garden test with my gh5. I implemented every trick in the book to support AF and the complete test was flawless, Phase Detectlike. So? Well consistency is the name of the game and thats not Pana’s AF. For me, as a non pro, thats ok. I can clean my footage up in post, if needed.

Thanks for sharing your experience an opinion! I have a question not relating this particular video.. I'm a new user of S1H. I had rented one before I purchased it, and I had a little magnified focus area window while I was recording, which was a bit irritating but useful if I knew how to get rid of it and put it on when I wanted. My problem is, I can't find the magnified focus area window anywhere on my newly purchased S1H. How can I get it on view finder?? Your answer can be a savior!
Great review! Did they also slightly improve the stabilization? There’s a couple instances in your comparison video where there is a very slight wobble preform ware but it doesn’t do it ever on the new firmware.
Sorry if the answer is embedded below, but what specific AF settings were you using on the S1H (S vs C; human/animal detect, tracking, 225-area, zone, 1-area, 1-area+). I can also vouch for the AF sensitivity and speed settings. Even on V1.1 settings of 0 & 0 are optimum to reduce focus shifting. Despite it all, using Manual focus is the most predictable - MF, the right F-stop and just tapping the AF-ON button works great.
I love panasonic. I love the build quality, I love the quality of the glass available for both systems. But dear god can they please get this AF shit together? Is there some patent reason holding them back from sony style dual contrast/phase detect?
3:08 You must be kidding, it wasn't super well, maybe for a Panasonic shooter but not for a regular viewer. Your video was an excellent presentation, how hard Panasonic tries they cannot make their camera's tracking video AF usable. I am really sorry, since in every other respect the S1H would be a dream camera. Of course since the arrival of the A7SIII and FX3 the whole landscape has drastically changed, and my enthusiasm towards S1H or any Panasonic cameras is decreasing rapidly.
Make sure you keep lighting consistent in these tests. A subject in strong sunlight vs open skylight is going to give different results. Whether the background is properly lit or not, you will see large differences based on the key hitting your subject. I have done numerous in depth tests on the C200, and the intensity/angle of light hitting the face can make a profound difference in the camera's ability to hold it. Given that you have a shiny new studio space, I'd love to see these kinds of A/B tests done in controlled conditions where other variables can't muddy the results. Nonetheless, thank you for the helpful examples and neutral commentary. I like your talking head lighting, too. So many youtubers go needlessly moody (presumably just to flex), even though it doesn't fit the content at all. Cheers!
I understand that results could of been affected given the different lighting scenarios (I forgot how fast the sun goes down in the winter), but I disagree for these tests and highly doubt it was enough to dramatically alter the tests. There were shots that performed essentially the same on both firmwares. If the old AF firmware consistently was way worse than the post firmware updates I may agree. There’s just not enough consistency to conclude that. That’s also the C200 AF a completely different brand, camera, and technology. Maybe they just like moody lighting? Glad you liked the lighting though and appreciate the support 🙏
@@DustinArmstrongPro I have found subject lighting to make a big difference in AF performance in every DSLM I've ever used (which is most of them) back to the GH3. The S1H's DFD technology doesn't fundamentally differ from any other CAF system, so I can't imagine why it would be an exception. That said, I do agree that the update is still a small step at best.
The auto focus issue could not be mainly about progmramming/firmware but mainly about hardware/processing power. The S5 is great when in APS-C mode. It could be that the S5 is just trying to be a full frame but just not there yet. Auto focus should not be secondary, it should always be one of the primary features. Panasonic might need to up their game on the processing department, else it will just end up as a deal braker.
Honestly think the information is irrelevant even if there is a slight improvement, to me it’s not worth restricting to those modes. Just use manual focus
Mostly people advise to use tracking mode for the best af results, but I hardly ever do. Just the smallest af area mode works pretty well. Not perfect, less intelligent, but usable. Can I have your opinion on that?
@@DustinArmstrongPro nope. When you turn the face recognition on only the recognition algorithm is enabled, not the tracking. When the tracking is working four additional straight lines appears at side of the box of the tracked face. It behaves the same either in video or for stills
I don’t think it make the autofocus any better though if that’s the point you’re trying to make. I’ll test it for myself, but I’ve done both (not in a RUclips video) and haven’t seen a noticeable difference
Yea on the S5 at least it tracks a single face the same whether you click or don’t click when the box is visible. It’s primarily to prioritize one face over another when there are multiple in a scene. It might make the AF “more confident” with a single face since it may try to jump off if you don’t confirm the target but would have to do some testing to confirm
@@mariobrunettin8338 Just tried in in AF-c for video only though not stills and when in the tracking option have to press screen to lock on , when in human detect AF again when tap screen locks on ( track bars are added to the focus box ) . the tracking is still not very sticky and seems to just do its own thing. for stills in S-af cant fault the camera, AF-c for stills is pretty good as well, not class leading but good all the same
Im afraid of its autofocus capabilities even after the firmware update.. I wonder they'll do a better job on the next update? If someone could make a better AF tracker (Canon style) and attach that on this camera (via one of them ports), I think that would help. I dont know if such a thing exist but I dont think Pan will recall all these S1H just because of their faulty AF mechanism.
It's more the technology. Contrast based AF is good for photos, but not great for video. There's a thing called the 3D follow focus from DJI that uses lidar. I'm going to make a video on it
I run auto mostly when people shift a decent amount and you’re using a wider aperture so we can’t see as much behind them. If you they shift too much and you’re on manual, sometimes they are a little out of focus the whole video and just doesn’t look good. But mostly for those types of scenarios
@@DustinArmstrongPro ah yes good example... those wide aperture lenses makes the lumix work for its money. Panasonic should buy patent for olympus phase detect.
Panasonic need to stop digging hard on their dfd focus system and trying something as canon or sony doing. Otherwise, they just loosing more & more people. Look at sony, they aim their product to suitable for everyone not only pro who like to use mf as Panasonic. I love Lumix camera and still doing mf but other people in my team can’t do it, and this made me to think again before dive in L mount system. Will wait the A74 & next generation of Lumix S camera
I wanna say it was 4k. But might of been 6k. I don't specifically remember off the top of my head. I do know that the AF will perform better the lower the resolution and if you go to S35.
Hi, wantet to ask you, Ur, the expert , to go to , on this cam :) I plan to shot a movie, I did with fx9, last time, and the audio recorder in that is good. ( I used the RØDE videomic pro ) .NOe, is the audio recorder in the s1H( preamps ) any good `?I plan to get the XLR unit .Any issues, known ?
Flip a coin? Just kidding. If you want autofocus, full frame 60 fps, and 4k 120 fps, I'd go with the A7sIII. If you want 6k, DCI 4K, better IBIS, BRAW via an external recorder, anamorphic shooting modes/desqueeze monitoring, true 24 fps, and external timecode sync, the S1H is the way to go

lol where are you?
I’m right here
My head literally fell of during this vid and its ur fault 😠😠😠😠😠😠😠
Only 4 other limbs left and you won’t have to worry anymore!
news flash...no one buys an S1H todo vlogging.
No way I'm every going with the S1H. No way. Bad, very bad AF.
If you need autofocus to make your workflow easier, definitely wouldn’t recommend the S1H
